Tire Inflation Positioning Switch (T.I.P.S.) © Service Tool
The new federal law requiring new passenger vehicles to be outfitted with
Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPM) has produced a wide variety of market
solutions. Many automobile manufacturers have selected the direct approach that
incorporates the use of transmitters built into the valve stems that transmit
information (Inflation pressure, temperature, etc) to the engine control module.
The majority of the direct tire pressure monitoring (TPM) sensors installed in
the wheels of passenger car tires today need to be re-trained each time the
tires are rotated.
Industry wide, there are a number of systems manufactured today with varied
techniques. These include magnetic and electronic frequency sensor triggering,
as well as, multiple frequency bands used to carry the transmission signal to
the engine control module. While TPM manufacturers have designed service tools
for their specific sensor, this will result in the requirement for service
facilities to purchase multiple TPM service tools.
The T.I.P.S. © tool is a patented product that has been designed to
universally initiate all known tire sensors available in the marketplace today.
The T.I.P.S. © tool accommodates both magnetically and electronically triggered
sensors so one tool is all you need.
Why purchase an initiation tool for each and every sensor in the market when
you can purchase the T.I.P.S. © tool that will service all your needs.
